What's really amazing to me at least, is how well you can pull up shadows in post, and then how well the files sharpen, in just a matter of 60 seconds post-processing. This was shot during the middle of the day, maybe around 3pm, and the runner was heavily shadowed. But with the 1Dx RAW files in post, not really too big of a problem for web viewing. Here is a 3-shot hurdler sequence from Malone:

I then quickly turned with my 1Dx and 400 f/2.8L I IS lens, and with bad framing, still caught the other Malone hurdler at the absolute very last moment. I posted it because of how quickly the AF worked to lock on the new hurdler:

Thanks guys. Thank goodness I had time to edit the shadows, but didn't get too much time to nitpick 1000 photos from proper framing/cropping etc. I need to get better at that in-cam so that I don't need to worry so much.

I really like the 3rd one. Great shot.

Yup! You can see in his eyes he is already eyeing the next goal 10 mt away. Excellent capture! The others are great too.

Thanks, I didn't submit the first one, because it's not framed right, too much, even just a tad, on the left, at least I think. 2-4 I did submit though. Thanks for the nice replies. Let's keep getting better, right?
